EXPLANATORY NOTE
As discussed in Note 12 to the notes to consolidated financial statements included herein, Royal Bancshares of Pennsylvania, Inc. (the “Company”) is amending the consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, included in the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter end September 30, 2005, (the “Form 10-Q”). As further described in a current report on Form 8-K filed on December 22, 2006, the restatement of the consolidated statement of cash flows results principally from a misclassification of certain cash flows relating to cash derived from equity real estate investments received during the period.
The Form 10-Q as amended hereby continues to speak as of the date of the originally filed Form 10-Q, and the disclosures have not been updated to speak as of any later date. Any items in Form 10-Q that are not expressly changed hereby shall be as set forth in the Form 10-Q, as previously filed. All information contained in this Amendment No. 1 and the originally filed Form 10-Q is subject to updating and supplementing as provided in the Company’s periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission subsequent to the filing of the Form 10-Q.
Pursuant to SEC Rule 12-b-15, in connection with this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A, the Company is filing updated Exhibits 31(v), 31(vi), 32(iii) and 32(iv).

ROYAL BANCSHARES OF PENNSYLVANIA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Royal Bancshares and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Royal Investments of Delaware, Inc. and Royal Bank, including Royal Bank’s subsidiaries, Royal Real Estate of Pennsylvania, Inc., Royal Investments America, LLC, and their two 60% ownership interests in Crusader Servicing Corporation and Royal Bank America Leasing, LP. The two formed Delaware trusts, Royal Bancshares Capital Trust I and Royal Bancshares Capital Trust II are not consolidated per requirements under FIN 46(R). These financial statements reflect the historical information of the Company. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.
1.   The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP) for interim financial information. The financial information included herein is unaudited; however, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004. The results of operations for the three-month period and the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
2.   Segment Information
 
    Royal Bancshares’ Community Banking segment consists of commercial and retail banking. The Community Banking business segment is managed as a single strategic unit which generates revenue from a variety of products and services provided by Royal Bank. For example, commercial lending is dependent upon the ability of Royal Bank to fund itself with retail deposits and other borrowings and to manage interest rate and credit risk. This situation is also similar for consumer and residential mortgage lending.
 
    Royal Bancshares’ Tax Lien Operation does not meet the quantitative thresholds for requiring disclosure, but has different characteristics than the community banking operation. Royal Bancshares’ Tax Lien Operation consists of purchasing delinquent tax certificates from local municipalities at auction. The tax lien segment is managed as a single strategic unit which generates revenue from a nominal interest rate achieved at the individual auctions along with periodic penalties imposed.
 
    As a result of the adoption of FIN 46(R), Royal Bancshares is reporting on a consolidated basis its interest in two Equity Investments as Variable Interest Entities (“VIE”) which have different characteristics than the community banking segment. Royal Bancshares has investments in two apartment complexes.

3.   Per Share Information
The Company follows the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, “Earnings Per Share”. The Company has two classes of common stock currently outstanding. The classes are A and B, of which Class B has a 1:1.15 conversion rate to Class A. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS takes into account the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised and converted into common stock. On December 15, 2004 the Company declared a 2% stock dividend payable on January 12, 2005. All share and per share information has been restated to reflect this dividend. Basic and diluted EPS are calculated as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

6.   Pension Plan

 


Table of Contents

The Company has a noncontributory nonqualified defined benefit pension plan covering certain eligible employees. The Company sponsored pension plan provides retirement benefits under pension trust agreements and under contracts with insurance companies. The benefits are based on years of service and the employee’s compensation during the highest consecutive years during the last 10 years of employment. The Company’s policy is to fund pension costs allowable for income tax purposes.
Net periodic defined benefit pension expense for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 included the following components:
                                 
    Three months ended     Nine months ended  
    Sept. 30,     Sept. 30,  
(in thousands)   2005     2004     2005     2004  
Service cost
  $ 183     $ 191     $ 1,442     $ 573  
Interest cost
    53       53       186       159  
 
                       
Net periodic benefit cost
  $ 236     $ 244     $ 1,628     $ 732  
 
                       
The total accumulated benefit obligation under the plan including adjustments is estimated to be $6.2 million at December 31, 2005.
7.   Stock-based Compensation
At September 30, 2005, the Company had both a director and employee stock-based compensation plan. The Company accounts for the plan under the recognition and measurement provisions of Accounting Principals Board No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employee,” and related interpretations. Stock-based employee compensation costs are not reflected in net income, as all options granted under the plan had an exercise price equal to the market value under the underlying common stock of the date of the grant.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure” (“SFAS No. 148”) in December 2002. SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure and certain transition provisions of SFAS No. 123 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”. The new disclosure provisions were effective for financial statements for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002 and financial reports containing condensed financial statements for interim periods after December 15, 2002, with which the Company complies.
The following table provides the disclosure required by SFAS No. 148 and illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to stock-based employee compensation.

8.   Interest Rate Swaps
For asset/liability management purposes, Royal Bancshares uses interest rate swap agreements to hedge various exposures or to modify interest rate characteristics of various balance sheet accounts. Such derivatives are used as part of the asset/liability management process and are linked to specific liabilities which have a high correlation between the contract and the underlying item being hedged, both at inception and throughout the hedge period.
The Company currently utilizes interest rate swap agreements to convert a portion of its fixed rate time deposits to a variable rate (fair value hedge) to fund variable rate loans. Interest rate swaps are contracts in which a series of interest flows are exchanged over a prescribed period. The notional amount ($75 million) on which interest payments are based is not exchanged. During the third quarter ended September 30, 2005, the Company recorded expense in the amount of $676 thousand in other operating expenses which reflects the fair value of the interest rate swaps resulting from the Company not meeting the upfront documentation and the effectiveness assessment requirements of SFAS 133.
9.   Variable Interest Entities (“VIE”)
          The Company, together with a real estate development company, formed Brook View Investors, L.L.C. (“Brook View”) in May 2001. Brook View was formed to construct 13 apartment buildings with a total of 116 units in a gated apartment community. The development company is the general partner of the project. The Company invested 60% of initial capital contributions with the development company holding the remaining equity interest. Upon the repayment of the initial capital contributions and a preferred return, distributions will convert to 50% for the Company and 50% for the development company. At September 30, 2005, Brook View had total assets of $12.7 million and total borrowings of $12.7 million of which $0 is guaranteed by the Company. The Company has determined that Brook View is a VIE and it is the primary beneficiary. The property was sold on October 19, 2005 as noted in the Recent Developments section and disclosed through press release on October 20, 2005.
          The Company, together with a real estate development company, formed Burrough’s Mill Apartment, L.L.C. (“Burrough’s Mill”) in December 2001. Burrough’s Mill was formed to construct 32 apartment buildings with a total of 308 units in a gated apartment community. The development company is the general partner of the project. The Company invested 72% of initial capital contributions with the development company holding the remaining equity interest. Upon the repayment of the initial capital contributions and a preferred return, distributions will convert to 50% for the Company and 50% for the development company. At September 30, 2005, Burrough’s Mill had total assets of $34.4 million and total borrowings of $30.0 million of which $0 is guaranteed by the Company. The Company has determined that Burrough’s Mill is a VIE and it is the primary beneficiary. The property was sold on October 19, 2005 as noted in the Recent Developments section and disclosed through press release on October 20, 2005.
          The Company, together with a real estate investment company, formed 212 C Associates, L.P. (“212 C”) in May 2002. 212 C was formed to acquire, hold, improve, and operate office space located in Lansdale, Pennsylvania. The investment company is the general partner of the project. The Company invested 90% of initial

 


Table of Contents

capital contributions with the investment company holding the remaining equity interest. Upon the repayment of the initial capital contributions and a preferred return, distributions will convert to 50% for the Company and 50% for the investment company. On June 7, 2005, 212 C refinanced the debt for approximately $19.1 million which resulted in a distribution to the Company of approximately $4.0 million which paid back the Company’s original investment and accrued preferred return. In addition, the Company recorded a profit of $1.8 million as result of this distribution. As a result of the transaction the Company no longer qualifies as the primary beneficiary and no longer consolidates this VIE into the Company’s financial statement beginning with the second quarter of 2005.
          The Company, together with a real estate development company, formed Main Street West Associates, L.P. (“Main Street”) in February 2002. Main Street was formed to acquire, maintain, improve, and operate office space located in Norristown, Pennsylvania. The development company is the general partner of the project. The Company invested 90% of initial capital contributions with the development company holding the remaining equity interest. Upon the repayment of the initial capital contributions and a preferred return, distributions will convert to 50% for the Company and 50% for the development company. On June 30, 2005, Main Street sold the property for approximately $5.3 million and paid back the Company’s original investment plus the accrued preferred return in full.
Trust Preferred Securities
Management has determined that Royal Bancshares Capital Trust I/II (“the Trusts”) qualify as VIE’s under FASB Interpretation 46 (FIN 46), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities,” as revised. The Trusts as previously issued mandatory redeemable trust preferred securities to investors and loaned the proceeds to Royal Bancshares.
The Company adopted the provision under the revised interpretation, FIN 46(R), in the first quarter of 2004. Accordingly, Royal Bancshares does not consolidate the Trust. FIN 46(R) precludes consideration of the call option embedded in the preferred securities when determining if the Company has the right to a majority of the Trusts’ expected residual returns. The deconsolidation resulted in the investment in the common stock of the Trusts to be included in other assets as of September 30, 2005 and the corresponding increase in outstanding debt of $774 thousand. In addition, income received on the Company’s stock investment is included in other income.
10.   Income Taxes.
          Total income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2005 was $1.8 million, as compared to $2.2 million for the same period in 2004. For the nine-month period September 30, 2005 income tax expense was $4.2 million, as compared to $6.3 million for same period in 2004. During the second quarter of 2005 the Company recorded an approximate $1.7 million decrease in tax expense resulting from the completion of an Internal Revenue Service audit with respect to a valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset derived from net operating loss carryovers.
11.   Commitments, Contingencies and Concentrations
          The Company is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of risk in excess of the amount recognized in consolidated balance sheet.
A summary of the Company’s commitments is as follows:
                 
(in thousands)   September 30, 2005   December 31,2004

12.   Restatement
In connection with the preparation of the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A, management reconsidered the classification of certain cash flows principally relating to income derived from equity real estate investments received during the period along with the treatment of the deconsolidation of these investments. In addition the Company will amend the treatment of OREO transfers from loans and the treatment of accretion and amortization of loans and investments.

13.   Recent Accounting Pronouncements
     In January 2003, the FASB’s Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) issued EITF Issue No. 03-1, “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investors” (“EITF 03-1”), and in March 2004, the EITF issued an update. EITF 03-1 addresses the meaning of other-than-temporary impairment and its application to certain debt and equity securities. EITF 03-1 aids in the determination of impairment of an investment and gives guidance as to the measurement of impairment loss and the recognition and disclosures of other-than-temporary investments. EITF 03-1 also provides a model to determine other-than-temporary impairment using evidence-based judgment about the recovery of the fair value up to the cost of the investment by considering the severity and duration of the impairment in relation to the forecasted recovery of the fair value. In July 2005, FASB adopted the recommendation of its staff to nullify key parts of EITF 03-1. The staff’s recommendations were to nullify the guidance on the determination of whether an investment is impaired as set forth in paragraphs 10-18 of Issue 03-1 and not to provide additional guidance on the meaning of other-than-temporary impairment. Instead, the staff recommends entities recognize other-than-temporary impairments by applying existing accounting literature such as paragraph 16 of SFAS 115.
     In July 2005, the FASB issued a proposed interpretation of FAS 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes"' to clarify certain aspects of accounting for uncertain tax positions, including issues related to the recognitions and measurement of those tax positions. If adopted as proposed, the interpretation would effective in the four quarter of 2005, and any adjustments required to be recorded as a result of adopting the interpretation would be reflected as a cumulative effect from a change in the accounting principle. Management is currently in the process of determining the impact of the adoption of the interpretation as proposed on our financial position or results of operations.
     In June 2005, the EITF reached a consensus on Issue No. 05-6, “Determining the Amortization Period for Leasehold Improvements Purchased after Lease Inception or Acquired in a Business Combination” (“EITF 05-6”). This guidance requires that leasehold improvements acquired in a business or purchased subsequent to the inception of the lease be amortized over the shorter the useful life of the assets or a term that includes required lease periods and renewals that are reasonably assured at the date of the business combination or purchase. This guidance is applicable only to leasehold improvements that are purchased or acquired in reporting periods beginning after June 29, 2005. The Company is evaluating the impact, if any, of EITF 05-6 on its financial statements.
     In October 2005, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position FAS13-1 (“FSP 13-1”), which requires companies to expense rental costs associated with ground or building operating leases that are incurred during a construction period. As a result, companies that are currently capitalizing these rental costs are required to expense them beginning in its first reporting period beginning after December 15, 2005. FSP FAS 13-1 is effective for our Company as of the first quarter of fiscal 2006. Management have evaluated the provisions of FSP FAS 13-1 and do not believe that its adoption will have a material impact of the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
On April 14, 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) adopted a new rule that amends the compliance dates for FASB’s Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS No. 123R”). Under the new rule, the Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 123R in the first annual period beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company has not yet determined the method of adoption or the effect of adopting SFAS No. 123R, and it has not determined whether the adoption will result in amounts that are similar to the current pro forma disclosures under SFAS No. 123.
In March 2005, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 47 (“FIN 47”), “Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations,” that requires an entity to recognize a liability for a conditional asset retirement obligation when incurred if the liability can be reasonably estimated. FIN 47 clarifies that the term Condition

 


Table of Contents

Asset Retirement Obligation refers to a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of entity. FIN 47 also clarifies when an entity would have sufficient information to reasonably estimate the fair value of an asset retirement obligation. FIN 47 is effective no later than the end of fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our Consolidated Financial Statement.
In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB No. 107”), “Share-Based Payment”, providing guidance on option valuation methods, the accounting for income tax effects of share-based payment arrangements upon adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), and the disclosures in MD&A subsequent to the adoption. The Company will provide SAB No. 107 required disclosures upon adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) on January 1, 2006.
In May 2005, FASB issued SFAS 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections”. The Statement requires retroactive application of a voluntary change in accounting principle to prior period financial statements unless it is impracticable. SFAS 154 also requires that a change in method of depreciation, amortization, or depletion for long-lived, non-financial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate that is affected by a change in accounting principle. SFAS 154 replaces APB Opinion 20, “Accounting Changes”, and SFAS 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements”. SFAS 154 will be effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Management currently believes that adoption of the provisions of SFAS 154 will not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment.” Statement No. 123(R) replaces Statement No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” Statement No. 123(R) requires compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized in the financial statements over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award. Public companies are required to adopt the new standard using a modified prospective method and may elect to restate prior periods using the modified retrospective method. Under the modified prospective method, companies are required to record compensation cost for new and modified awards over the related vesting period of such awards prospectively and record compensation cost prospectively for the unvested portion, at the date of adoption, of previously issued and outstanding awards over the remaining vesting period of such awards. No change to prior periods presented is permitted under the modified prospective method. Under the modified retrospective method, companies record compensation costs for prior periods retroactively through restatement of such periods using the exact pro forma amounts disclosed in the companies’ footnotes. Also, in the period of adoption and after, companies record compensation cost based on the modified prospective method.

ITEM 2 — MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULT OF OPERATIONS
     The following discussion and analysis is intended to assist in understanding and evaluating the changes in the financial condition and earnings performance of the Company and its subsidiaries for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2005. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2004 included in the Company’s 2004 Form 10-K. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year ending December 31, 2005.
Forward-Looking Statements.
     From time to time, the Company may include forward-looking statements relating to such matters as anticipated financial performance, business prospects, credit quality, credit risk, reserve adequacy, liquidity, new products, and similar matter in this and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These forward-looking statements may involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which my cause other factors which may cause actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to material different from the future results, performance or achievement expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. When the Company uses words such as “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “should,” “estimate,” or similar expressions, the Company is making a forward-looking statement. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for such forward-looking statements. In order to comply with the terms of the “safe harbor,” the Company provides the following cautionary statement which identifies certain factors that could cause the Company’s actual results and experience to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements.
Certain risks and uncertainties could affect the future financial results of the Company including the following:
    The effect of general economic conditions, including their impact on capital expenditures; credit risk, and consumer confidence and savings rates.
 
    Changes in interest rates and their impact on the level of deposits, loan demand and the value of loan collateral.
 
    The accuracy of management’s assumptions
 
    The ability of the Company to adapt to changing technology and evolving banking industry.
 
    Competitive factors, including increased competition with community, regional and national financial institutions.
 
    The risk that anticipated demand for the Company’s new service and product offerings will not occur.
     All forward-looking statements contained in this report are based on information available as of the date of this report. The Company expressly disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect future statements to reflect future events or developments.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES, JUDGMENTS AND ESTIMATES
     The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and general practices within the financial services industry. Applications of the principles in the Company’s preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. These estimates and assumptions are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements; therefore, actual results could differ from those estimates.

 


Table of Contents

     For additional information regarding critical accounting policies, refer to Note A- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the notes to consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes in the Company’s application of critical accounting policies since December 31, 2004. However, as more fully discussed under “Recent Accounting Pronouncements” included elsewhere in this report, the FASB issued a new accounting standard, FAS No. 123(Revised 2004), which will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2006. The new accounting standard eliminates the ability of the Company to account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method of APB25 and requires that the Company recognize such transactions in the income statement based on their fair values at the date of grant. The Company is current evaluating the impact that the standard will have on the Company’s result of operations.
Allowance for Loan Losses
     The Company considers that the determination of the allowance for loan losses involves a higher degree of judgment and complexity than its other significant accounting policies. Management determines the allowance for loan losses with the objective of maintaining a reserve level sufficient to absorb estimated probable credit losses. Management has determined the Company’s balance in the allowance for loan losses based on management’s detailed analysis and review loan portfolio. Management considers all known relevant internal and external factors that may affect loan collectibility. The periodic analysis and review includes an evaluation of the loan portfolio in relation to past loss experience, the size and composition of the portfolio, current economic events and conditions, and other pertinent factors, including Management’s assumptions as to future delinquencies, recoveries and losses. Management’s evaluation is inherently subjective and all of these factors may be susceptible to significant change. To the extent actual outcomes differ from management’s the Company may be required to make additional provisions for loan losses that could adversely impact earnings in future periods.
     The Company uses the reserve method of accounting for loans losses. The balance in the allowance for loan and lease losses is determined based on management’s review and evaluation of the loan portfolio in relation to past loss experience, the size and composition of the portfolio, current economics events and conditions, and other pertinent factors, including management’s assumptions related to future delinquencies, recoveries and losses. Increases to the allowance for loans and leases losses are made by charges to the provision for loan losses. Credit exposures deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for loans losses. Recoveries of amounts previously charged-off are credited to the allowance for loan losses.
Non-performing loans
Loans on which the accrual of interest has been discontinued or reduced amounted to approximately $5.7 million at September 30, 2005, as compared to $4.5 million at December 31, 2004, an increase of $1.2 million. This increase is primarily attributed to the addition of two loans, one a participation loan secured by a pool of golf courses and the other a hotel construction loan in New Orleans. These additions were partially offset by a non-residential loan and single family construction loan that were paid off during the quarter. Although the Company has non-performing loans of approximately $5.7 million at September 30, 2005, management believes it has adequate collateral to limit its credit risk with these loans.
The balance of impaired loans, which included the loans on which the accrual of interest has been discontinued, was approximately $10.0 million and $4.5 million at September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively. The Company identifies a loan as impaired when it is probable that interest and principal will not be collected according to the contractual terms of the loan agreements or where there is a significant reduction in collateral associated with the loan. Although the Company recognizes the balances of impaired loans when analyzing its loan loss reserve, the allowance for loan loss associated with impaired loans was $1.6 million at September 30, 2005. The $1.6 million associated with impaired loans consist of: $1.0 million related to a golf course in New Jersey, $249 thousand for a hotel under construction in New Orleans and the remainder associated with residential loans. The income that was recognized on impaired loans during the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2005 was $-0-. The cash collected on impaired loans during the same periods ended September 30, 2005 was $2.4 million and $3.6 million, respectively, all which was credited to the principal balance outstanding on such loans. The Company’s policy for interest income recognition on impaired loans is to recognize income on currently performing restructured loans under the accrual method. The Company recognizes income on non-accrual

 


Table of Contents

loans under the cash basis when the principal payments on the loans become current and the collateral on the loan is sufficient to cover the outstanding obligation to the Company. If these factors do not exist, the Company does not recognize income.
Income Taxes
     Under the liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are subject to management’s judgment based upon available evidence that future realization of the gain or loss attributable to the asset or liability is more likely than not. If management determines that the Company may be unable to realize all or part of the net deferred tax assets in the future, a direct charge to income tax expense may be required to reduce the recorded value of net deferred tax assets to the expected realizable amount.
Interest Rate Swaps
The Company uses derivatives instruments, such as interest rate swap agreements to hedge various exposures or to modify interest rate characteristics of various balance sheet accounts. Such derivatives are used as part of the asset/liability management process and are linked to specific liabilities which have a high correlation between the contract and the underlying item being hedged, both at inception and throughout the hedge period.
The Company currently utilizes interest rate swap agreements to convert a portion of its fixed rate time deposits to a variable rate (fair value hedge) to fund variable rate loans and investments. Interest rate swaps are contracts in which a series of interest flows are exchanged over a prescribed period. The notional amount ($75 million) on which interest payments are based is not exchanged.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
     Total consolidated assets as of September 30, 2005 were $1.28 billion, an increase of $70 million from the $1.21 billion reported at year-end, December 31, 2004. This increase is primarily due to a $66 million increase in the loan balance and $29 million increase in investments during the first nine months of 2005, partially offset by an $19 million decrease in premises and equipment as a result of the deconsolidation of two of the VIE’s (see Note 11 to the undaudited consolidated financial statements) as mentioned above and $11 million reduction in cash and cash equivalents.
     Total loans increased $66.2 million from the $467.3 million level at December 31, 2004 to $533.5 million at September 30, 2005. This increase is attributed to an increase in lending staff, competitive interest rates and expansion of the Company’s lending area into the Virginia, Washington D.C. and Northern New Jersey area. The year-to-date average balance of loans was $507.6 million at September 30, 2005.
     The allowance for loan loss decreased $2.2 million to $10.3 million at September 30, 2005 from $12.5 million at December 31, 2004. The $2.2 million reduction was attributed to a loan the Company had in Texas. The level of allowance for loan loss reserve represents approximately 1.9% of total loans at September 30, 2005 versus 2.7% at December 31, 2004. While management believes that, based on information currently available, the allowance for loan loss is sufficient to cover losses inherent in the Company’s loan portfolio at this time, no assurances can be given that the level of allowance will be sufficient to cover future loan losses or that future adjustments to the allowance will be sufficient to cover future loan losses or that future adjustments to the allowance will not be necessary if economic and/or other conditions differ substantially from the economic and other conditions considered by management in evaluating the adequacy of the current level of the allowance.

     The $29.2 million increase in total investment securities is primarily attributable to two $25 million leverage strategies completed during the second and third quarters of 2005 partially offset by $16.7 million in bonds that matured which were classified as held to maturity. These two leverage strategies included brokered deposits totaling $50 million which was matched with an interest rate swap with an identical maturity and rate reset period.
     Total cash and cash equivalents decreased $10.6 million from the $27.1 million level at December 31, 2004 to $16.5 million at September 30, 2005. This decrease was primarily attributed to the funding of loan originations.
     Total deposits, the primary source of funds, decreased $46.2 million to $696.2 million at September 30, 2005, from $742.4 million at December 31, 2004. The balance of brokered deposits was $122.0 million, representing approximately 18% of total deposits at September 30, 2005. Generally, these brokered deposits cannot be redeemed prior to the stated maturity, except in the event of the death or adjudication of incompetence of the deposit holder.
     Total borrowings increased $108.5 million to $412.5 million at September 30, 2005, from $304.0 million at December 31, 2004. This increase is primarily attributed to the utilization of FHLB borrowings, in the amount of $122.0 million, for funding of loan volume and covering the decline in the balance of higher yielding deposits. This increase in FHLB borrowings was partially offset by the deconsolidation of two VIE’s as mentioned above which resulted in a reduction in borrowings of $13.5 million.
     Consolidated stockholders’ equity increased $4.3 million to $145.2 million at September 30, 2005 from $140.9 million at December 31, 2004. This increase is primarily due to increased earnings in excess of dividends paid during the nine month period.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
     Results of operations depend primarily on net interest income, which is the difference between interest income on interest earning assets and interest expense on interest bearing liabilities. Interest earning assets consist principally of loans and investment securities, while interest bearing liabilities consist primarily of deposits and

 


Table of Contents

borrowings. Interest income is recognized according to the effective interest yield method. Net income is also affected by the provision for loan losses and the level of non-interest income as well as by non-interest expenses, including salary and employee benefits, occupancy expenses and other operating expenses.
     Consolidated net income for the three months ended, September 30, 2005 was $4.9 million or $0.39 basic earnings per share, as compared to net income of $5.1 million or $0.41 basic earnings per share for the same three month period in 2004. Consolidated net income for the nine months ended, September 30, 2005 was $16.5 million or $1.31 basic earnings per share, as compared to net income of $14.7 million or $1.17 basic earnings per share for the same nine month period in 2004.
     For the third quarter of 2005, net interest income was $10.9 million as compared to $9.7 million for the same quarter in 2004, an increase of $1.2 million. This increase is primarily due to an increase in the average loan balances. Net interest income for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005 was $32.4 million as compared to $30.1 million for the same period in 2004, an increase of $2.3 million. This increase is primarily due to a $1.3 million exit fee received on a mezzanine loan during the second quarter along with an increase in net interest income of $1.0 million (excluding the exit fee received).
     There was no provision for loan losses taken during the third quarter of 2005 as compared to the $1 thousand taken during the third quarter of 2004. Charge-offs and recoveries for the third quarter of 2005 were $0 and $19,000, as compared to $7,000 and $68,000 for the third quarter of 2004, respectively. Charge-offs and recoveries for the nine month period ended September 30, 2005 were $2.3 million and $86,000 respectively as compared to $98,000 and $267,000 for the same period in 2004. Overall, management considers the current level of allowance for loan loss to be adequate at September 30, 2005.
     Total non-interest income for the three-month period ended September 30, 2005 was $3.3 million as compared to $3.8 million for the same three-month period in 2004. This decrease is primarily attributed to the deconsolidation of two VIE’s. Total non-interest income for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005 was $9.8 million as compared to the $10.5 million for the same period during 2004. This decrease is a result of the deconsolidation of the two VIE’s in the amount of $1.5 million which is offset by the $1.8 million gain from 212 C (as referenced in Note 9 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).
     Total non-interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2005 was $7.5 million, as compared to $6.2 million for the same period in 2004, an increase of $1.3 million. The increase is primarily attributed to a $700 thousand decline in the fair value of interest rate swaps. Total non-interest expense for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005 was $21.5 million, as compared to $19.6 million for the same period in 2004, an increase of $1.9 million. The increase is primarily attributed to the $700,000 expense related to the decline in fair value of interest rate swaps, an additional expense of approximately $930,000 related to the Company’s pension fund as a result of changes to the plan, the write down of an asset, in the approximate amount of $420,000, on the books related a sublease that was terminated, and the reversal of losses that were previously booked, in the approximate amount of $400,000, related to the Main Street West VIE, which the Company was paid in full on its’ investment following the sale of the property during the second quarter of 2005.
     Total income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2005 was $1.8 million, as compared to $2.2 million for the same period in 2004. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005 income tax expense was $4.2 million, as compared to $6.3 million for same period in 2004. The $2.1 million decrease was primarily due to the company recording an approximate $1.7 million decrease in tax expense during the second quarter of 2005 resulting from the completion of an Internal Revenue Service audit with respect to a valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset derived from net operating loss carryovers.
CAPITAL ADEQUACY

 


Table of Contents

     The Company and its banking subsidiary are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by state and federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines involve quantitative measure of assets and liabilities calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Quantitative measures established by banking regulations, designed to ensure capital adequacy, required the maintenance of minimum amounts of capital to total “risk weighted” assets and a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio, as defined by the banking regulations. At September 30, 2005, the Company was required to have a minimum Tier 1 and total capital ratios of 4% and 8%, respectively, and a minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio of 3% plus an additional 100 to 200 basis points.
     The table below provides a comparison of Royal Bancshares of Pennsylvania’s and Royal Bank’s risk-based capital ratios and leverage ratios:

     The Company’s ratios compare favorably to the minimum required amounts of Tier 1 and total capital to “risk weighted” assets and the minimum Tier 1 leverage ratio, as defined by banking regulations. The Company currently meets the criteria for a well-capitalized institution, and management believes that the Company will continue to meet its minimum capital requirements. At present, the Company has no commitments for significant capital expenditures.
     The Company is not under any agreement with regulatory authorities nor is the Company aware of any current recommendations by the regulatory authorities that, if such recommendations were implemented, would have a material effect on liquidity, capital resources or operations of the Company.
LIQUIDITY & INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY

 


Table of Contents

     Liquidity is the ability to ensure that adequate funds will be available to meet the Company’s financial commitments as they become due. In managing its liquidity position, all sources of funds are evaluated, the largest of which is deposits. Also taken into consideration are securities maturing in one year or less, other short-term investment and the repayment of loans. These sources provide alternatives to meet its short-term liquidity needs. In addition, the FHLB is available to provide short-term liquidity when other sources are unavailable. Longer liquidity needs may be met by issuing longer-term deposits and by raising additional capital. The liquidity ratio is calculated by adding total cash and investments less reserve requirements divided by deposits and short-term liabilities which is generally maintained at a level equal to or greater than 25%.
     The liquidity ratio of the Company remains strong at approximately 42% and exceeds the Company’s target ratio set forth in the Asset/Liability Policy. The Company’s level of liquidity is provided by funds invested primarily in corporate bonds, capital trust securities, US Treasuries and agencies, and to a lesser extent, federal funds sold. The overall liquidity position is monitored on a monthly basis.
     In managing its interest rate sensitivity positions, the Company seeks to develop and implement strategies to control exposure of net interest income to risks associated with interest rate movements Interest rate sensitivity is a function of the repricing characteristics of the Company’s assets and liabilities. These include the volume of assets and liabilities repricing, the timing of the repricing, and the interest rate sensitivity gaps is a continual challenge in a changing rate environment. The following table shows separately the interest sensitivity of each category of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities as of September 30, 2005:

(1)   The $42.7 in borrowings classified as non-rate sensitive are related to variable interest entities and are not obligations of the Company.
     The Company’s exposure to interest rate risk is mitigated somewhat by a portion of the Company’s loan portfolio consisting of floating rate loans, which are tied to the prime lending rate but which have interest rate floors and no interest rate ceilings. Although the Company is originating fixed rate loans, a portion of the loan portfolio continues to be comprised of floating rate loans with interest rate floors.

ITEM 4 — CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a)   Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
     Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, with the assistance of management, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
     Because of inherent limitations, our disclosure controls and procedures may not prevent or detect misstatements. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instance of fraud, if any, have been detected.
(b)   Changes in internal controls.
     There has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting during our quarter ended September 30, 2005 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
On October 20, 2005, the Company announced a 10% increase in its quarterly dividend. Also, on October 20, 2005, the Company announced that due to the sale of two equity positions held by Royal Investments America, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Royal Bank America, the Company’s revenue would increase by approximately $16.7 million and contribute $11 million to net income.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In January 2003, the FASB’s Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) issued EITF Issue No. 03-1, “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investors” (“EITF 03-1”), and in March 2004, the EITF issued an update. EITF 03-1 addresses the meaning of other-than-temporary impairment and its application to certain debt and equity securities. EITF 03-1 aids in the determination of impairment of an investment and gives guidance as to the measurement of impairment loss and the recognition and disclosures of other-than-temporary investments. EITF 03-1 also provides a model to determine other-than-temporary impairment using evidence-based judgment about the recovery of the fair value up to the cost of the investment by considering the severity and duration of the impairment in relation to the forecasted recovery of the fair value. In July 2005, FASB adopted the recommendation of its staff to nullify key parts of EITF 03-1. The staff’s recommendations were to nullify the guidance on the determination of whether an investment is impaired as set forth in paragraphs 10-18 of Issue 03-1 and not to provide additional guidance on the meaning of other-than-temporary impairment. Instead, the staff recommends entities recognize other-than-temporary impairments by applying existing accounting literature such as paragraph 16 of SFAS 115.

 


Table of Contents

     In July 2005, the FASB issued a proposed interpretation of FAS 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes"' to clarify certain aspects of accounting for uncertain tax positions, including issues related to the recognitions and measurement of those tax positions. If adopted as proposed, the interpretation would effective in the four quarter of 2005, and any adjustments required to be recorded as a result of adopting the interpretation would be reflected as a cumulative effect from a change in the accounting principle. Management is currently in the process of determining the impact of the adoption of the interpretation as proposed on our financial position or results of operations.
     In June 2005, the EITF reached a consensus on Issue No. 05-6, “Determining the Amortization Period for Leasehold Improvements Purchased after Lease Inception or Acquired in a Business Combination” (“EITF 05-6”). This guidance requires that leasehold improvements acquired in a business or purchased subsequent to the inception of the lease be amortized over the shorter the useful life of the assets or a term that includes required lease periods and renewals that are reasonably assured at the date of the business combination or purchase. This guidance is applicable only to leasehold improvements that are purchased or acquired in reporting periods beginning after June 29, 2005. The Company is evaluating the impact, if any, of EITF 05-6 on its financial statements.
     In October 2005, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position FAS13-1 (“FSP 13-1”), which requires companies to expense rental costs associated with ground or building operating leases that are incurred during a construction period. As a result, companies that are currently capitalizing these rental costs are required to expense them beginning in its first reporting period beginning after December 15, 2005. FSP FAS 13-1 is effective for our Company as of the first quarter of fiscal 2006. Management have evaluated the provisions of FSP FAS 13-1 and do not believe that its adoption will have a material impact of the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
On April 14, 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) adopted a new rule that amends the compliance dates for FASB’s Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS No. 123R”). Under the new rule, the Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 123R in the first annual period beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company has not yet determined the method of adoption or the effect of adopting SFAS No. 123R, and it has not determined whether the adoption will result in amounts that are similar to the current pro forma disclosures under SFAS No. 123.
In March 2005, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 47 (“FIN 47”), “Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations,” that requires an entity to recognize a liability for a conditional asset retirement obligation when incurred if the liability can be reasonably estimated. FIN 47 clarifies that the term Condition Asset Retirement Obligation refers to a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of entity. FIN 47 also clarifies when an entity would have sufficient information to reasonably estimate the fair value of an asset retirement obligation. FIN 47 is effective no later than the end of fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our Consolidated Financial Statement.
In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB No. 107”), “Share-Based Payment”, providing guidance on option valuation methods, the accounting for income tax effects of share-based payment arrangements upon adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), and the disclosures in MD&A subsequent to the adoption. The Company will provide SAB No. 107 required disclosures upon adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) on January 1, 2006.
In May 2005, FASB issued SFAS 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections”. The Statement requires retroactive application of a voluntary change in accounting principle to prior period financial statements unless it is impracticable. SFAS 154 also requires that a change in method of depreciation, amortization, or depletion for long-lived, non-financial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate that is affected by a change in accounting principle. SFAS 154 replaces APB Opinion 20, “Accounting Changes”, and SFAS 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements”. SFAS 154 will be effective for accounting

changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Management currently believes that adoption of the provisions of SFAS 154 will not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment.” Statement No. 123(R) replaces Statement No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” Statement No. 123(R) requires compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized in the financial statements over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award. Public companies are required to adopt the new standard using a modified prospective method and may elect to restate prior periods using the modified retrospective method. Under the modified prospective method, companies are required to record compensation cost for new and modified awards over the related vesting period of such awards prospectively and record compensation cost prospectively for the unvested portion, at the date of adoption, of previously issued and outstanding awards over the remaining vesting period of such awards. No change to prior periods presented is permitted under the modified prospective method. Under the modified retrospective method, companies record compensation costs for prior periods retroactively through restatement of such periods using the exact pro forma amounts disclosed in the companies’ footnotes. Also, in the period of adoption and after, companies record compensation cost based on the modified prospective method.
